sulntng guard 31, as before, which is capable of swinging out of position, as shown' by dotted lines in Fig. 6. A. lantern of this construction is adapted for handling in the manner usual with ordinary lanterns and is capable of use as an attachment to a vehicle, while possessing theadvantages of an acetylene gus lmnp over the ordinary kerosene lamp without having the usual objectional feature of acetylene lamps, their liability of having the water in the reservoir freeze during very cold Weather.

What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

An acetylenelantern, comprising an acetylene gas generator, a burner connected therewith, a Water reservoir located directly above the burner to receive heat therefrom, a valved tubular connection between the water reservoir and the generator, and an asbestos guard movably mounted on the bottom of the water reservoir and adapted to be moved over the burner to regulate the temperature of the water in the reservoir.

Y In testimony whereof, I affix my signeture, in presence of two witnesses.
